Omega Planet Ocean 600M Master Chronometer Chronograph 45.5mm

Regardless of all technological advancements, this Planet Ocean, viewed from any angle, remains a purebred Seamaster. We are reminded of this as soon as we see the traditional "applied" logo on the dial, the serrated bezel, the characteristic hands, and the contrasting colors of the design. The classic black dial offers excellent contrast thanks to the applied luminescent hour markers and polished hands. The dial itself is ceramic (as with all Planet Ocean models from the new series) and proudly bears the "ZrO2" designation in its center. The date window is positioned at 6 o'clock, the faceted hands have Super-LumiNova inserts, and the hour markers are crafted in the same way – a fact that gives the watch a simultaneously sporty and elegant look. One of the things that is almost impossible to show in its full beauty through photographs is the various dimensions of the dial. The subdials are recessed, and the applied Omega logo and the metal rings around them make the watch look impressive and catch the light in an exceptionally attractive way. Special attention must be paid to the movement of this timepiece. Under the name Calibre 9900 lies the next generation of one of Omega's most acclaimed in-house movements of the last 15 years. The differences compared to the 9300 are few, but significant. First, it is now a Master Chronometer, having passed METAS certification with much stricter criteria. Second, it operates at 28,800 vibrations. Third, it offers significantly longer service intervals. The other parameters are also impressive – an automatic chronograph with two barrels, 54 jewels, and 337 components, with Omega's Co-Axial escapement and a Si14 silicon balance wheel. The movement is METAS certified and offers a power reserve of over 60 hours. Co-Axial is a patented Omega technology that significantly reduces friction in the heart of the movement and provides better reliability, accuracy, and longevity. The column-wheel chronograph ensures a smooth start of the seconds hand and precise stopping and resetting. The inclusion of a transparent case back allows us to enjoy the operation of this movement and further emphasizes the overall feeling of a complete and high-quality product.
